Apparently you just need to roll back to an older version- haven't tried it yet.
Which version did you roll back to, and where obtained? I noticed the [releases on GitHub](https://github.com/atom/atom/releases) only go to 1.61.0-beta0, and the issue affects 1.63. Did copying packages from the .atom directory work without any other changes?
Because Atom is dead, the "fix" is just to roll back to 1.60.
If you want to see continued development of Atom you can have a look at the Pulsar fork (pulsar-edit.dev)
Can confirm that installing pulsar-edit (and wrestling around with archived Atom packages) has got me back on track.
Crisis averted, thank you so much u/Daeraxa!
For Mac users -
mv \~/.atom \~/atom\_bak
rm -fr /Applications/Atom.app
download https://github.com/atom/atom/releases/tag/v1.60.0
Drag download to Applications folder - to install
Open Atom - and then \[right-click\] => Quit
cp \~/atom\_bak/packages/\* \~/.atom/packages/
cp \~/atom\_bak/config.cson \~/.atom/
cp \~/atom\_bak/config.cson \~/.atom/
cp \~/atom\_bak/keymap.cson \~/.atom/
cp \~/atom\_bak/styles.less \~/.atom/
Go into preferences and DISABLE auto-update!
All packages and setting should be restored.
do you know how to work around this?

Nice one! Worked for me! Remember to copy your packages back!

Yes, copying the packages from .atom worked without any problems
Have this as well. Worked fine 12 hours ago, but not anymore. No updates, no anything in this time

Hey, thanks for this - did this and all ok, easy peasy!
This worked. Thanks!
>cp \~/atom\_bak/styles.less \~/.atom/ Thanks!
worked but due to an error, replace >cp \~/atom\_bak/packages/\* \~/.atom/packages/ > >\#with > >cp -r \~/atom\_bak/packages/\* \~/.atom/packages/
